FILE - In this July 13, 2009 file photo, Sarab village resident Raihan comforts her 1-year-old son after having an early morning opium smoke with family members in the Badakhshan province of Afghanistan. Raihan was addicted to opium while pregnant with her son making him an addict at birth. 'When he was born, he would cry day and night. But when she blows smoke in his face, he sleeps,' said her father Islam Beg. In dozens of mountain hamlets in this remote corner of Afghanistan, opium addiction has become so entrenched that whole families — from toddlers to old men — are addicts.
